Pete Odland founded Hunt for a Cure in 2001 in honor of his four-year-old son, Dylan, who has cystic fibrosis. When Pete learned of his son’s terminal disease, he knew he had to join the fight to cure Cystic Fibrosis (CF). The next couple years Pete helped with the existing fundraisers. But Pete wanted to do more and one day while sitting in his tree stand he came up with the idea of Hunt for a Cure. Pete couldn't wait to get started. Because his enthusiasm was contagious he soon had a committee of highly ambitions and dedicated people. With the strong committee that Pete had assembled, success was only a matter of time. Pete wanted to get a major sponsor who would be a good fit for the event so he approached Scent-Lok. One of the officers in Scent-Lok had lost two sisters to CF, so they immediately embraced Hunt for a Cure and became the title sponsor. Since that time the event has grown in leaps and bounds.

Hunt for a Cure has generated more than $500,000 for CF research. This event brings together over 100’s of sportsmen, women and children from all over Western Michigan .

CF is a genetic disease that causes the body to produce abnormally thick, sticky mucus leading to life-threatening lung infections. By investing in CF research, you are investing in the lives of those with the disease. Money buys science and science buys life. Through Hunt for a Cure we can give the children and adults with CF the quality of life and future they deserve.

The mission of the Hunt for a Cure organization is to assist with the funding to cure and control cystic fibrosis and to improve the quality of life for those with the disease.
